I get that there won’t be any security updates. So any problem found can be exploited. But how high is the chance for problems for an average user if you say, only browse some safe websites? If you have a pc you don’t really care much about, without any personal information? It feels like the danger is more theoretical than what will actually happen.
Or… are there any examples of people (not corpos) getting wrecked in the past by an eol OS?
I meant that thing where it redirects you to another site and makes it impossible to go back to the site you were on.
Hmm, I thought modern day browsers had protection against redirect and history poisoning attacks. Guess not in all.
Was a few years ago.
